Caselet / Problem Set Context~146 words
A large store has only three departments, Clothing, Produce, and Electronics. The following figure shows the percentages of revenue an cost from the three departments for the years 2016, 20172017 and 2018. The dotted lines depict percentage levels. So for example, in 2016, 50%50\% of store's revenue came from its Electronics department while 40%40 \% of its costs were incurred in the Produce department.
In this setup, Profit is computed as (Revenue - Cost) and Percentage Profit as Profit/Cost ×100%\times 100 \%. It is known that
1
The percentage profit for the store in 20162016 was 100%100 \%.
2
The store's revenue doubled from 20162016 to 2017, and its cost doubled from 20162016 to 20182018.
3
There was no profit from the Electronics department in 20172017.
4
In 2018, the revenue from the Clothing department was the same as the cost incurred in the Produce department.

Three pouches (each represented by a filled circle) are kept in each of the nine slots in a 3×33 \times 3 grid, as shown in the figure. Every pouch has a certain number of one-rupee coins. The minimum and maximum amounts of money (in rupees) among the three pouches in each of the nine slots are given in the table. For example, we know that among the three pouches kept in the second column of the first row, the minimum amount in a pouch is Rs. 6 and the maximum amount is Rs. 8.
There are nine pouches in any of the three columns, as well as in any of the three rows. It is known that the average amount of money (in rupees) kept in the nine pouches in any column or in any row is an integer. Hence the sum of nine pouches in any row or column should be a multiple of 9. It is also known that the total amount of money kept in the three pouches in the first column of the third row is Rs. 4.
